Female national team, Super Falcons coach, Thomas Dennerby says he is banking on flexibility in his squad, which he says makes it possible for them to play different formations at every point in a match.
With weeks tuning into days ahead of the 2018 African Women Cup of Nations in Ghana, the Swedish tactician told sports247.ng that he believes his players’ creative efforts will help them when the competition begins.
The Falcons will first play against old rivals, South Africa on November 18 in their first group match and Dennerby is already thinking big for victory.
He reckons that his side will carry the day because of their technical depth, which makes it possible for the team to switch defence into attack at the snap of a finger.
Dennerby stated: “I am happy with how the players have been able to adapt to my tactics. They have shown an encouraging ability to learn and apply, which makes it is easy for the team to switch formations easily, and they are not goal shy.”
